[00:00:00]But how y'all? This is Stone Hook in Orange, Texas. This is Monday night.

[00:00:08]Had a big old piece of obsidian that Tom Brown give me at the nibless bluff nap in. I put it in the saw.

[00:00:16]I cut the butt cut off of it.

[00:00:21]Then I took the next slab about a/ inch thick I think.

[00:00:26]I cut it in two pieces.

[00:00:31]That's what I'm bit of a city. I'm going to use an inch and a half weightless bumper.

[00:00:42]And let's see.

[00:00:47]I don't know what to expect of all that right there, but I like a preform about that big. Two and a quarter inches by five and five and a half to the ears.

[00:01:25]That's probably getting pretty ambitious.

[00:01:30]I'm going to start out by working these edges over there closer to this side and shape. One side's working better than the other.

[00:01:39]I may adjust.

[00:01:41]I see that's a seam right there.

[00:01:49]I'm going just start out by getting me some bevel that I can I ain't going to try to drive them too long yet, but I do want them to come out. I don't want to be too steep.

[00:02:10]And this side's flat and good. So really, if I can get the flake to travel more on this side, I'm way better off.

[00:02:43]And that seam going right down in there.

[00:03:36]Heat.

[00:03:47]Heat.

[00:03:56]got three.

[00:15:08]keep digging in right there.

[00:15:12]That little pressure I think causing that climbed that one right there. It broke off.

[00:24:59]I have no made it across it that time, but man, that's so thin.

[00:28:13]Darn it. Didn't dig in again.

[00:38:41]I'm about working on this thing.

[00:38:45]I got still some thickness right there up close to that edge.

[00:38:52]Other than that, looks pretty good, I guess, except for where them flakes.

[00:38:59]Just kept diving right through there.

[00:39:02]That one still dove in.

[00:39:10]Yeah, I need to get Let's see where that go. Right there. There. I need to get that hump off right there.

[00:40:58]That's all I can do with it. Shoot.

[00:41:02]It was fun as heck though. This stuff flakes really, really good. I think just to be in this butt cut though. That's one side there. See this side got a nice convex contour to it. But this side kept diving in the middle.

[00:41:24]See some more mass right there.

[00:42:07]That's all I can do. Heck, I keep sitting on this thing all night. It's so fun.

[00:42:14]But I didn't talk much because I just in a panic the whole time after they started diving and stuff. But I got these other two pieces here. I'll come back to work next.

[00:42:26]I'll be back.
